Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

West, Fort Nelson

Desk staff didn't give much information about the building or breakfast. Available parking was limited.

Liked: close to mount royal u for taking my son
Disliked: Bathroom door had poor repairs to three punch holes. Door didn't close. There was hair and tissue paper on bathroom floor and dirt on the heater in bathroom. Very noisy neighbours and house keeping was done after 4:30 pm.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Sharon R, Edmonton

Liked: Very close to Chinook Centre and some good restaurants.
Disliked: Where to begin? The shower curtain was mouldy, the bathroom door had a hole in it and wouldn't close, the number of towels were inadequate, the carpet was stained, the light bulbs in the room were very low wattage, every night was party night for our neighbours, the "continental breakfast" was bread, limited cereal, very watery coffee and dry chocolate chip cookies, our key cards never worked and had to be fixed every day. We renamed it the POS Hotel - figure it out!

Owner cranky and let us know that Howard Johnson corp takes too much of percentage and that he has to charge everything that he can so that he could make any money...he cancelled our check in cards a day early had to get new ones and mentioned to the girl and she said he complains even to them..my suggestion is not to let his relatives stay there and fill with paying customers and treat them w/respect..

Liked: Nice desk girls
Disliked: Rooms did not get vacuumed the whole 3 days

Bad

Disliked: A homeless man came knocking on our door at 2 AM and trying to break in, when leaving immediately and requesting a refund for our stay and for the night after a refund, we were told they would call us back numerous times and they did not. Do not stay here. Unsafe.

Not recommended for long stay

Disliked: The ventilation of the room was not good, so there was some smell when I got in there. The building is facing the road, so you will hear the noise of the traffic. Just for a short stay it is fine with this price. Not recommended for longer stay.
